Answer

(a) $74.6Hz$ (b) $4.61W$

Work Step by Step

(a) As $Z=\frac{R}{cos\phi}=\frac{3.35K\Omega}{cos23.0^{\circ}}=3.639K\Omega$ We know that $f=\frac{1}{2\pi C\sqrt{Z^2-R^2}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $f=\frac{1}{2\pi(1.50\times 10^{-6})\sqrt{(3.639K\Omega)^2-(3.35K\Omega)^2}}=74.6Hz$ (b) We can find the required power as $P_{avg}=I_{rms}^2 R$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $P_{avg}=(\frac{V_{rms}}{Z})^2 R$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $P_{avg}=(\frac{135}{3.63K\Omega})^2(3.35K\Omega)^2=4.61W$
